ELECTION APPEAL Parliament Dissolution Laid to Russian, U. S., British Policies, BACKGROUND— Conflict between Japanese Army leadership and civilian authorities in Japan over foreign policy brought Gen. Senjuro Hoyoshi to the pre miership as compromise. Early expression of modification of foreign policy by Gen. Hoyoshi has led to calling for general elec tions of April 30 in Japan. Br the Associated Press. TOKIO, April 15.—Premier Senjuro Hayashi, In an election appeal to the Japanese people, declared today the acute International situation created for the country by Russia’s Asiatic policy and the huge United States and British naval expansion had caused the recent dissolution of Parliament. The premier, who attacked the ma jor parliamentary parties for filibuster ing in the last session of the Diet, urged the voters to elect on April 30 a new House of Representatives quali fied to carry out a program made nec essary by the grave situation facing the empire. One million copies of the appeal, printed in the official gazette, were dis tributed to the electorate. Hayashi, referring to growing na tionalistic sentiments over the world, laid the delicate international situa tion surrounding Japan did not war rant optimism. He declared the Japanese govern ment was watching with concern the Soviet Union's Fax Eastern policy, predicated on gigantic armaments, to gether with the Komintem’s ideo logical aggression. Nor can the government, he de clared, remain indifferent to the huge Anglo-American naval expansion pro grams. — . - • Connery (Continued Prom First Page.) N. R. A.” for the textile industry.

In the light of decisions broaden ing the interpretation of the inter state commerce clause of the Consti tution. Connery said Congress could legislate to prevent interruptions of the free flow of interstate commerce and al^o to control "recurring prac tices” which cause such interruptions. •’Low wages, long hours and child labor,” he asserted, "are the most frequently recurring practices which A Racer Lives Up to Its Name Mischief, a class “C” service runabout, somersaulting while rounding a curve on the course in the Olympic Marine Basin at Long Beach, Calif., during one of the races in the recent Pacific Coast regatta.

That’s what men strike about.” Whatever legislation is adopted toward shortening working hours, he said, should be uniform but flexible enough to permit exceptions where necessary. ''There should be no wage differ entials, however,” he asserted. "No $15 for the North and $11 for the South. I can see no justification for such discrimination.” John L. Lewis, whose labor or ganizers have been active in mass pro duction industries, served notice he would oppose any bill to require labor upions to incorporate. Such a measure might destroy the unions, he said, because "spies'' placed in a labor organization by a corpora tion could commit "overt acts" for which the union would be held res-1 ponsible. Lewis said a surge of enthusiasm for his Committee for Industrial Organization developed after the Wagner act decisions. Three hundred requests for charters have been re ceived, he said, predicting the mem bership soon would be larger than that of the American Federation of Labor. The C. I. O. leader said a resolution in Congress condemning sit-down strikes, along with company unions and industrial espionage, "admirably straddled the situation." he added: "I wouldn’t say that C. I.

By the Associated Press. LONDON, April 15. — Dissatisfied convicts at Dartmoor Prison, Eng land’s bleak “granite jug,” were re ported today to have been balked In a plot for a corodnation day mutiny. Officials, however, denied the existence of such a plot. An unconfirmed report said the prisoners, angered because King George VI would not reduce sentences or grant pardons in celebration of his coronation May 12, had arranged a “break” during the crowning cere monies. The secretary of the prison com mission, however, said there was mere ly a “minor breach of discipline” at the prison, and that it arose after a “number of prisoners made complaints about dinner.” Only five Inmates were involved in the incident, he said, "for which they were duly reported and dealt with,” Report Minimised. ■ The home office likewise minimized reports of impending trouble in the isolated penitentiary on the south western moors.

The prisoners were believed to have selected May 12, the day King George VI will be crowned, for a bold dash for freedom because they were an gered by the fact no amnesties will be granted or sentences reduced in celebration of the event. The agency said it was believed the prisoners may have planned on re duced vigilance on the part of their guards on the national holiday. Demonstrations similar to those pre ceding the famous Dartmoor mutiny five years ago were said to have occurred, with prisoners flinging plates and soup bowls in the faces of officers. The men were said to have beer* angered because they learned Italy had reduced penal sentences in trip.
